C.J. Tuttle Joins Press Row

Every Wednesday, Administrative Editor Jordan Breen welcomes a member
of the mixed martial arts media into “Press Row” on the Sherdog.com
blog. This week, Breen is joined by Sherdog.com Associate Editor
C.J. Tuttle.

Breen and Tuttle take stock of the UFC's needle movers in the
sub-lightweight categories following considerable mainstream media
attention for Ronda
Rousey and Conor
McGregor's latest violent exploit in the Octagon. The pair
touch on why ideas about Rousey abandoning MMA for the silver
screen are misguided, why MMA is more akin to pro-wrestling when it
comes to crossing over into Hollywood and the most interesting
parts of public reaction to the Olympic bronze medalist and Irish
upstart.

The Sherdog editors also discuss McGregor's recently announced
UFC 178 bout with Dustin
Poirier, featherweight champion Jose Aldo's
neck injury, how it changes his rematch with Chad Mendes,
why it could end up being a blessing in disguise for the Team Alpha
Male product. Also on the slate: a less-than-flattering appraisal
of 2008 Beijing Games freestyle wrestling gold medalist Henry
Cejudo's MMA career to date amidst rumors of negotiating with
the UFC.
